Description

Drawing on decades of research in neuroscience and sleep science, this accessible exploration reveals how sleep influences memory, learning, creativity, emotional balance, and physical health. It explains the essential stages and functions of sleep, the consequences of sleep deprivation, and the ways modern habits and technology can disrupt our natural rhythms. Combining scientific evidence with practical insights, the book makes a compelling case for treating sleep as a foundation of well-being rather than a luxury. Clear, engaging, and thought-provoking, it offers readers a deeper understanding of one of the most important—and often misunderstood—parts of daily life.
